Location: The Panhandle		He did fall at the 3rd barrel but it was quite some time before he started to have problems. Just went from winning a jackpot to running past the barrels. Injected his stifle which he showed dead lame on with a flex test, he went right back to smoking a run. It only lasted two months though. Now after 6 months off he became very sore pretty quickly. He wasn't nearly as lame this week when she flexed his stifle as he had been 6 months ago, but sore in his back and is dragging both back toes. He bucked a little when I rode and he's never done that.

Location: The Panhandle		OMG, have the best news ever! Made the trip to Oakridge with our gelding and after extensive evaluation which included lots of blocks and xrays he has been given the okay to race again. He xrays very clean, especially for 9 years old and the only arthritic changes are so minimal that they are unremarkable. We did inject a hock and front coffin both on the right side but his stifle was negative! Three days rest and then Dr. said put him to work! Thank you to everyone who had advice and support, I can't begin to tell you what a blessing this diagnosis is, but again you all know that!
